Killer Instinct S2 OST - Polemos (Aganos' Theme)

Composed by Mick Gordon.

[@GrayAndGrey]

Mahi, Polemos, Niki, Ponos, Dhiki, Polemos, Tromos Pantou. Battle, War, Victory, Pain, Trial, War, Terror Everywhere. I love this theme, my absolute favorite. Makes you feel like you can take on the world and come out on top.

[@liamroberts7512]

+Gray And Grey Totally. If I was ever a UFC fighter, this would be my theme

[@TheActualMrLink]

+Gray And Grey that's all Greek, right?

[@liamroberts7512]

Uh-Huh, it is

[@CodyRockLee13]

+xXMr0LinkXx It is indeed Greek.

[@TheJEEMON143]

+CodyRockLee13 yea but if you were fighting its best for hydra

[@hernannicolas4869]

Aganos means ""a person of gentle disposition""

[@windindi2834]

*sees Aganos* AND THIS FITS HIM HOW?!

[@jesseteixeira6284]

He doesn't smash flowers. Just people. XD

[@hiroprotagonest]

He hunts the sorcerer Kan-Ra!

[@usnajae2]

hisako means " everlasting child"

[@DoingTheBestICan]

Adam ET Gargos means "can't fight their own battles, must call on others for help"

[@BrawlBringer]

Mick Gordon's music alone makes me want to get into Killer Instinct.

[@alexk.7064]

Battle! War! Victory! War! Horror! War! Fear everywhere!

[@griffingower1883]

Mahi=Battle Polemos=War Niki=Victory Ponos=Pain Diki=Trial Tromos Pantou=Terror Everywhere

[@deuone]

4:23 My absolute favorite part of any of Mick Gordon's incredible list of songs. Everything about this is literally perfect, the heavy offbeat drums, the wailing guitars mixed with the orchestral and then the chanting chorus in second part of the chorus... its just... wow. I loved Micks work on every other track he did for KI, but this song is the one that really put him into the list of legendary producers for me.

[@mitrahispana4119]

Makes me imagine Poseidon rising from the sea, commanding a tsunami wave with his trident to smash and drown those who displease him.

[@ProyectoOnyx]

You, my friend, are fucking right

[@g_h_o_u_l]

Too Bloody True mate🤟

[@lycan7032]

in greek language if you say these phrases : mahi = battle polemos = war niki = victory ponos = pain dhiki = trial tromos pantou =fear everywhere

[@Paradoxe2]

Metaaaaaal !!!

[@griffingower1883]

Tromos pantou is actually terror everywhere

[@CyborgCharlotte]

Once you see the face of the old man in the dress of the headless statue, you can never unsee it

[@xWagnerPlaguesx]

The Cyber Engineer fuck, you're so right

[@evangedeon2194]

I didn't realize they weren't faces at first glance 😂

[@evangedeon2194]

I didn't realize they weren't faces at first glance 😂

[@sweetrushentertainment2524]

3:40 Classic KI theme incorporated in Aganos's theme, just too beautiful !

[@owenconteh3077]

0:36 - 3:25 I LOVE the Greek Choir chant "BATTLE", "WAR", "VICTORY", "PAIN", "TRAIL", "WAR", "TERROR EVERYWHERE"!!!!! it gives you the feeling of ancient POWER!!! 2:09 - "Aganos is charging right at you, what do you do"?

[@chrisunlimited2448]

The only survivor of his kind

[@childa.i.5198]

What about the giant golem the back of the stage

[@TeamRemForever]

Polemos, Shaterhail, Warlord and Village of Whispers are my favorite songs on the soundtrack. They are all just epic in scale

[@Jabbaro123]

This game has one of the best soundtracks.

[@LadyOfSnow]

This is one of my favourite songs in this soundtrack. It just evokes such a strong, visceral reaction in me. When I hear this, I'm transported to a battlefield in ancient Greece. Thousands of soldiers line up to face their foes in battle, clashing their spears against their shields and chanting this song as they advance. Then the sound of steel on steel, the screams and shouts of those killing and dying, the fields running red with blood. A shape appears, a giant shadow that casts itself over the battlefield. The golem strides forward, this ancient engine of war, wielding its terrible club and crushing underfoot those that dare stand in its way. It strikes fear into the hearts of its enemies, and they run away in terror. And as they flee, they can hear the soldiers' voices chasing them, and the golem following behind... POLEMOS! POLEMOS! POLEMOS!

[@armado30]

aganos is a war golem,so this song is very fitting.

[@minecraftwololo]

GLORIOUS !

[@tyusmcdaniel8977]

I love that every theme in this game fits the characters so well lol, like the bass and the chanting fits aganos so well, making you think he really is this huge ancient titan walking towards you bout to fuck some shit up lol

[@DyspareEmbodied]

A deep powerful song every bit worthy of a blockbuster movie soundtrack.

[@Flickeralex]

The Breakdown part is KI's main theme remixed, which makes the entire song the best of the best OSTs in videogames

[@Sleepgarden]

once you hear the carol of the bells, you can't unhear it

[@ChillinInIce]

The Enygma wut

[@novenayherrera1936]

Carol of the bells greek metal cover

[@akumaking1]

Welp

[@mitrahispana4119]

The crescendo at 4:23 makes me imagine Poseidon looming out of the ocean with his trident, summoning a monstrous tsunami wave to obliterate a Greek city.

[@jerryo1933]

4:27 thrills

[@matthardybroken1846]

Reminds me of GOD OF WAR.

[@jesseteixeira6284]

I wish this ended with the musical ultra. Aganos has the best one. :p

[@arcanegrimoire]

Kevin Jones indeed

[@TheFjellbondeChronicles]

+Kevin Jones ohhhh yes

[@skadi2411]

This is now my senior quote :D

[@hathorliderc]

Is it just me or does Mick Gordon like to sneak in the title theme in a lot of these tracks?

[@novenayherrera1936]

Its called Leitmotif

[@liamroberts7512]

Ni-KYAHHHHH! (pounds ground and rocks rain down on the opponent)

[@matthardybroken1846]

Progressive metal

[@AlexB-ju9iy]

I don't care what anybody says, this is the best theme

[@echodelmiguez522]

When you hear a small blooded God red marked human with pale skin killed almost the whole Greek gods

[@pokemonboy59832]

This music fits PERFECTLY for Aganos, I love this theme so much! :)

[@shadowjagossj8476]

story about Aganos and tusk how hell tusk became a God in killer instinct season 3

[@usnajae2]

well this song is going on my awesome mix tape volume 2

[@TobiasWhisperwind]

"How do we make this guy bigger?" Mick Fucking Gordon: "hold my beer"

[@dotwashere4498]

god youtube compression really does not do this song justice. Still a great song but I'd encourage others to seek out a better quality version of this song, it really does hit different.

[@capobreakonebreak5604]

its been 2 years now till i find the name of this Song

[@officialegemen]

Mick Gordon is awesome.

[@sasuke9978]

Fucking awesome.

[@panosdragneel1940]

Greece is everywhere!

[@matthardybroken1846]

Why does his stage reminds me of Urien stage from Sf Third Strike

[@Kilesfactor]

+christopher Smith Aztec Ruin-ish

[@shadow96433]

Put this in level 2 of Castlevainia Bloodlines

[@chaosriders79]

It sound awesome at 1.25 speed.

[@Jabbaro123]

I love tribal music.

[@ElFreakinCid]

Over 450 individual voices joined together in one of the most epic chants of our time... A huge, impressive accomplishment indeed!

[@chrisunlimited2448]

You sir are so right. This is the world of Killer Instinct

[@ElFreakinCid]

And what makes it feel all the more epic is knowing the man behind the lyrics, who's Greek himself, got his whole family to take part in the chant with him. It must've been such an experience for them, contributing something together to this game that reflects their home so awesomely.

[@chrisunlimited2448]

+ElFreakinCid 😎

[@Inriri]

LEAKY. POLEMOS.

[@minombreesreal7296]

Does anyone know of more songs that sound similar to this or sandstorm?

[@patriciociampi1100]

That Mayones

[@ZMowlcher]

WELL WHAT IS IT

[@killerbean494]

Josh Yeend, Polemos

[@usnajae2]

Hisako means " everlasting child"

[@FoxMikage]

For some reason to me this sounds like a KI remix of the Game of Throne theme, especially at parts like 0:28. I can picture it now, next time on KI, Kan-Ra backstabs Aganos but who will die?

[@justsomekid2839]

Kan-Ra disliked this.

[@Krakenburgvortex79]

Aganos didn't make a fine specimen.

[@shannonbanks9852]

4:27 when u unleash all ur rage on all ur bullies

[@maxdawson3011]

I would love an animation of kratos's life story showing how he grew, fuck it make it a montage even

[@Mr12sed]

just like the character itself, its like the song turns itself on again.

[@samikaze1862]

early Argent Metal

[@redtormaximo5530]

[REMOVE SADIRA]

[@KolomalakasPoutanas]

Imagine this in God of War...

[@SupremeEspio]

JustSomeGuy Kratos fighting Spinal with Polemos playing in the background would be amazing.

[@Sub___Zero]

[@ShizzThe69kinG]

[@Zarryon12]

Kratos : dude CHIIIIILLLL!!!! Aganos :WHERE IS KAN-RA!? Kratos: *ponders* yeah no, i'm just going to leave... Aganos: Kratos...God of War...you must help me go after Kan-Ra... Kratos: ...why? Aganos: He is evil and egyptian...and hated god of war 4. Kratos: Evil is all i needed to hear! Aganos: it was because he hates God of WAr 4 isn't it? Kratos: ...let's just focus on the journey ahead...
